Anyway hasnt andy been pointing two fingers to the sky now for a few years? No one will probably ever know what it means but i still got a sneaky suspicion that its something to do with the dunblane tragedy.

Thanks Matchpoint and Dani for the articles, which are pretty emotional reading for anybody I'd have thought, even if you don't know the people.

No problem at all!

Glad to know i wasn't the only one who got very emotional reading it.Ross sounds like his attitude to it is probably the best it could be in his situation,and that can be really important when facing the process he's facing.It's lovely to know he's got so much support from so many people (as well as our Andy!).So hope he makes a full recovery.

A true friend is what Andy is. They are few, and people we know we can always rely on. I know he will be in Andy's thoughts and I hope Ross will get well it may take some time but I am sure he will get there.

Like everyone else, I found this incredibly moving too. Apart from Andy's support, how typical of Ross to not quite be able to get his head around all the support he has received from so many people. Ross, like Andy, comes across as a decent, lovely man, and I am so glad that he can feel how much people are behind him. I hope it helps him in the days and weeks ahead, some of which will undoubtedly be tough.

In many ways it doesn't surprise me to learn that Andy has tried to find out as much as he can about what is happening with Ross. I think it will help in two ways. Firstly, and most important, it will help Andy be as supportive as possible to Ross. Secondly, I tend to think that if you can understand something better you feel that bit more in control. I'm sure it doesn't take the worry away, unfortunately nothing does that, but I do think finding out, researching, gives you a sense that you are doing something to help that is practical.

It's fantastic, and so positive that Ross is also talking about coming back to the game and good that Colin is being supportive.

If Ross is given the all clear around Wimbledon time, and then Andy goes on to win, it will be fabulous. I'd certainly raise a glass, or three, to that. In the meantime I really do wish Ross all the very best.

I could be wrong,but I definitely don't remember it at last year's AO.In my head it started around Wimbledon-can anyone remember for sure?

I think it was Wimbledon too, but I'm not sure if that is because that was when the media started talking about it or if Andy only started doing it at that point.

I have to be honest, I don't really care when it started as long as it continues to work, rather like me with this damned Chariots of Fire thing lol. Honestly, I've listened to it twice this week and Andy hasn't struck a ball at the AO yet lol.

I have a hunch it was wimbledon also. And very much agree with what you say about Andy's research tj. It's a way of trying to get in control of things and perhaps he feels a practical way he can be of support.
